There are retail events. And then there’s RetailJam.
Thursday 25th June, Knebworth Park & Barns
Set against the backdrop of Knebworth Park & Barns, RetailJam is known for bringing together some of the brightest minds in retail and brands (across ecommerce, customer experience, marketing, sustainability and technology) for a day of interactive discussions, peer-to-peer networking and fresh thinking.
It’s part retail conference, part festival, and entirely focused on the challenges and opportunities shaping the future of retail. From roundtables and keynote talks to tech discussions and networking over drinks in the sunshine, RetailJam has built a reputation as one of the most engaging events in the retail calendar. All under Chatham House Rules.
And this year, Datitude was proud to be there as a partner.
The Conversations Dominating RetailJam: Data & AI
Retailers aren’t short of data. The challenge is making that data connected, usable and trusted across the business.
We had lots of great conversations with retailers who are dealing with disconnected systems, siloed data, and conflicting numbers across departments. Businesses want to stop wasting time debating which numbers are right and start acting on data they trust.
At the same time, pressure is mounting to deliver more with automation, AI and advanced analytics. But without strong data foundations, AI is more hype than help.
It’s no wonder unified, trusted and AI-ready data is such a big focus for retailers right now.
At Datitude, we enable retailers to connect, integrate and unify their data from across the business into a single, trusted view. Our unified data platform brings together customer, product, sales, stock and operational data so teams can move faster, make better decisions and unlock more value from their existing technology investments.
Connected, clean, consistent data. Delivered where it needs to be, when it needs to be there, and fully governed.
Talking All Things Retail, Tech and Data
Sarah Hughes, Justin Lord and James McLaughlan were in their element, talking all things retail, data and AI.
Some of the recurring conversations were around whether it's better to build a data platform internally or work with a specialist data partner. And of course, there was lots of discussion on AI, LLMs and chatbots and how they're shaping the future of analytics and decision-making.
The team enjoyed sharing plenty of learnings and case studies from our experience - working with many retailers and brands who have been through the process and now have strong, trusted, and scalable data foundations in place.
If you're thinking about how to:
break down data silos and obtain a single source of truth
simplify complex integrations
improve trust in reporting and analytics
build a stronger, AI-ready data foundation
…we should talk!
